1979 Map of Mokelumne Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Mokelumne Peak stands as the central landmark in this high-elevation mountain landscape, where the borders of Amador, Alpine, and Calaveras counties converge within the Mokelumne Wilderness. The area is characterized by a network of seasonal water sources and meadows, including Ladeux Meadow and Munson Meadow, which historically supported early alpine travel and livestock. Traces of pioneer-era transit are evident at the Plasse Trading Post (Site), located near Plasse and a designated Cem and Grave, indicating the human toll of mountain passage. The terrain is deeply incised by the North Fork Mokelumne River and rugged drainages like Fourth of July Canyon. Notable high-country camps such as Camp Irene and Cedar Camp appear alongside established routes like the Squaw Ridge boundary, marking this as a documented corridor for wilderness surveying and recreational pack travel in the late 1970s.
